Set Eggs Upside Down...HELP!

[RileyB]

We began our first incubation 10 days ago. We are going to candle them all tonight, but as of a couple of days ago the ones we candled were growing. Now (after reading more on backyard chickens) I realized that we set the eggs wrong! We put the small end up instead of the large end. Is it too late to reposition them? Or are they a lost cause now? I'm freaking out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

don't worry its only 10 days

re position them and let the incubation carry on

stop turning at day 18 and keep them on pointy end down as much as possible

they should hopefully reposition as the embryo is still very small

Thanks!
Should I take them out of the egg turner on day 18?

you need to stop turning the eggs so depending on what sort of incubator you have you either stop the turner or you remove the cradle or turner bars
